Some of the VMs labels appear on more than one folio. One such is “okoe89”, which labels objects on five different folios (f99v, f89r1, f89r2, f82v and rosette). What do all these objects have in common?

Similarly, “okae89” appears on three different folios (f88r, f101v2 and f99r). Two look like the same plant/root.

A Caution

"Students who have approached the Voynich text from the point of view of the professional cryptanalyst have been led on at first by a deceptive surface appearance of simplicity, only to bog down sooner or later in an exasperating quagmire of paradoxes and enigmas that reveal themselves one by one as the analysis proceeds."
